Enabling Animated GIFs on our ROMs
Has anyone looked into applying the following fix in one of their ROMs?
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3422#c134
(sorry for the lack of hyperlink, the boards are preventing me from posting with a link)
Basically, its a small code change that will enable animated GIFs in the browser.
The bug owner warns that quite a bit of extra memory is needed to render them and can prove unstable on some phones if the needed memory isn't present.
The heavy memory usage is a limitation of Webkit and how it renders GIFs.
